This is a side business for us on top of normal life, so I hope this helps explain my apparent slacking

oh nice!

Luckily I haven't had my car catch on fire. That must pretty scary when you see plumes of smoke coming out of the hood.

no price yet... we're still finalizing the design (trying to make it work with recaros (possibly) and also have the option to mount the extingisher on the rear of the seat if desired).

Sorry for lagging on photos but I've gone through a few revisions so far and don't really want to muddy the water with pictures of a design that's constantly in revision. We should have something more concrete soon, but I'd rather have a little extra time invested and make the mount more versatile.

So I was delayed for about 30 minutes on the highway yesterday on my way to Orlando. Saw all the emergency vehicles speed by but could only see a cloud of smoke up ahead. Guess what was making that smoke?

A red RX8 with trick bronze wheels had caught on fire and was completely toast. The front end was melted as well as the wheels and the fire had spread to the back of the car as well. The young couple that owned the car was standing over on the side looking stunned.

Just another reminder to always carry a fire extinguisher. Wish I could have taken a shot but I couldn't stop without causing an accident.
